Apple intensifies its efforts in the Chinese market by introducing a free three-hour delivery service to cope with local competition.

Foreign Media: In response to the pressure from local competitors such as Huawei and Xiaomi, Apple is increasing its efforts to compete for the world's largest smartphone market - the Chinese market.

Starting from December 10, 2025, Apple will offer free three-hour delivery service in some cities in mainland China, covering products with stock including iPhone, iPad, Apple Watch, MacBook Pro/Air, and AirPods. For other products, users need to pay a shipping fee of 45 RMB (approximately 6.40 USD). This move aims to win over Chinese consumers, especially after Huawei launched the Mate 80 series flagship phone with an upgraded self-developed processor.

Apple previously faced weak sales in the Greater China region (including mainland China, Hong Kong, and Taiwan), with revenue declining by 4% in the third quarter. Additionally, Apple's mainland dealers have also partnered with Meituan to provide one-hour delivery service.
